Well done also RTB 👏

She lost the race running wide round the bend flying at the finish..but happy to see a class horse like Blue Bolt win. 🏆
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...September 12, 2026 at 16:05 #1775440Same here Jac I only backed him because of Saffie was shouting her home she was cruising two out. Well done us and HDLG.
The more I know the less I understand.
September 12, 2026 at 16:05 #1775441Blue Bolt is a class above , she was a cracking price

September 12, 2026 at 16:12 #1775444Great day for us all RTB and seeing history made..priceless. Would have loved to have been there.
Unusually I’ve had 3 double figure winners today and none are in my compy selections..lol🤣Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...September 12, 2026 at 16:13 #1775445Indeed Jac. Only my second winner for a month so well done on your winners.
The more I know the less I understand.
September 12, 2026 at 16:46 #1775453Still plenty of big races to come RTB and HDLG can’t wait for Future Champions Day at Newmarket and onwards to Ascot..be lucky. Jac
Things turn out best for those who make the best of how things turn out...September 12, 2026 at 18:02 #1775478Well done Trip, RtB and HDLG.
So pleased for Saffie Osborne.
Joseph O’Brien has used female jockeys before on horses with respectable chances IIRC and I like to see trust rewarded. Jessie Harrington (and Kate, pretty much, though her name isn’t on the licence) won the Irish Champion today.. ‘hon the wimmin!
September 12, 2026 at 18:10 #1775479So Christmas Day will join Lambourn, Serpentine, Wings of Eagles as a very mediocre Coolmore Derby winner who will earn his money as a jumps stallion.
Saffie was top notch on Highwayman and brilliant to see history made in the 250th renewal. Interesting that the Leger is as old as the USA but at least it’s not been taken over by a madman.AOB horses really in a poor vein of form right now. I do start to wonder if we are close to the moment where the apprentice succeeds the master. We’ve seen it with Skelton and Nicholls and it will come for Joseph and Aiden- perhaps sooner than we think.

No bet in this today; was out all day so only just watched a replay on my phone.A peach of a ride by Saffie. She’s really had an absolutely brilliant season; top rider👍
September 12, 2026 at 18:16 #1775482It hasn’t happened yet , you’ll know when it has as Coolmore won’t hesitate to stick the knife in and throw Aidan to the kerb , hey they have to think of the bloodstock revenue , winning races comes second …a distant second

September 12, 2026 at 19:26 #1775493Sounds about right HDLG. JOB will before long be the No.1 Juddmonte trainer in Ireland ahead of Weld and Lyons and he’s pushing his father close in the Irish Championship. Today’s 1-2 will move him up to around eighth in the UK standings as well, so his star is very much in the ascendancy – and he’s picked up 3 Classics either side of the Irish Sea. Vincent O’Brien started to decline after a 30 year spell at the top, and Aidan is nearing the end of his third decade as a Flat maestro.
